We divide 72974646 by 147
Let's see how many times 147 fits into 72974646.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 147, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 72 / 147

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 147 fits into 72 0 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 72, we get 72.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 72, then repeat: 729 / 147

Advancing to step 3:
729 divided by 147 is 4 with a remainder of 141.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 588 from 729, we get 141.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 141, then carry on: 1417 / 147

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 1417 by 147, we get 9 with a remainder of 94.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 49.0
If we take 1323 away from 1417, we end up with 94.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 94 and repeat the process: 944 / 147

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 147 fits into 944 6 times, leaving a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 496.0
Deduct 882 from 944 and we're left with 62.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 62 and repeat the process: 626 / 147

On to step 6:
147 goes into 626 4 times with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4964.0
If we subtract 588 from 626, we get 38.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 38 and continue with: 384 / 147

Step 7:
147 goes into 384 2 times with a remainder of 90.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49642.0
If we take 294 away from 384, we end up with 90.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 90 and repeat the process: 906 / 147

Step 8:
147 can be fit into 906 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 496426.0
Deduct 882 from 906 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 9:
240 divided by 147 is 1 with a remainder of 93.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 496426.1
If we subtract 147 from 240, we get 93.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 930, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 930 by 147, we get 6 with a remainder of 48.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 496426.16
Deduct 882 from 930 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 480 by 147, we get 3 with a remainder of 39.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 496426.163
If we take 441 away from 480, we end up with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 147 fits into 390 2 times, leaving a remainder of 96.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 496426.1632
Subtracting 294 from 390 leaves us with 96.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
147 goes into 960 6 times with a remainder of 78.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 496426.16326
Deduct 882 from 960 and we're left with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
147 can be fit into 780 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 496426.163265
Subtracting 735 from 780 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
The number 147 fits into 450 3 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 496426.1632653
Deduct 441 from 450 and we're left with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
147 can be fit into 90 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 90.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 496426.1632653
Subtract 0 from 90 to get 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 900, and continue the process.

The final result is 496426.1632653 with a remainder of 9e-08.
